The Information Security community has come together during the contentious 2020 elections. This community of professionals, hackers, analysts, executives, experts, advocates, and skilled individuals, who spend their days fighting to protect your privacy, rights and personal information, began a social experiment to take Twitter by storm with the hashtag #rootgoat2020, uniting behind this movement. #rootgoat2020 successfully hit "trending" status on the social media platform.

It's superceded their expectations, and that powerful momentum has united people of all races, genders, religions, talents, political affiliations, beliefs, and backgrounds, behind the simple idea that they can create the momentum to accomplish something together.

Our goal is simple: Reach as many people as possible, so they can say they, too, can experience what we all have, which is that #rootgoat2020 touched everything. When people of the future look back on this year,  they will know that a simple hashtag, #rootgoat2020, trended this year. We don't want anyone to feel excluded from knowing that #rootgoat2020 happened.

Help make our mark on history this year, 2020, and support #rootgoat2020. No lies, no gimmicks, no politics, no hidden agenda, no caveats, no hate, no discrimination, no exclusions. just a hashtag. followed by rootgoat2020. Be part of history. Be #rootgoat2020. Because we are. Because we can.
